Activision, Disney, EA, Insomniac Games, Epic Games, Take 2, and WB Games are among the major gaming firms with which SAG-AFTRA is negotiating on behalf of voice actors and motion capture performers.
For the first time ever, voice actors for video games went on strike in 2016–2017. The 11 month strike improved working conditions and compensation for voice actors.
